THE OLD FOLKS.


Mrs Annie Maupin, of Gasconade county,

and has seventy two grandchildren.
John Diron was born in New Orleans on

BASEBALL.

George Gore, of the New Yorks is laid up
with strained tendon in the leg.
Harry Wright was born in Yorkshire,
England, in 1885. He was once a jeweler.
The New Yorks made quite a hit when they
placed Ewing on third and Richardson on
second
The Boston club deserves the credit of dis
covering that young Dick Conway is twirler.
Manager Barnie released him.
The Boston Blues do not feel that they have
secured such a prize in old Jack Manning.
He seldom hits the ball of late.
McMullin, the Nets new California pitcher,
shows up very well in his practice, but it will
take few games to demonstrate his useful
ness.
With Mccormick, Calvin and Morris, the
Pittsburgs should hold better position than
they do. There is something wrong sore
where
Boston people consider johnson the best
center fielder in the country. Perhaps WEIGH
and Gore would like to express an opinion on
the subject.
The Chicagos want to try young Ryan be-
hind the bat and on first base; then he will
have filled every position on the nine. He is
a good player.
Old Joe Gerhardt still keeps up his wonder
full playing for the Nets. Probably the change
of air has something to do with it. Joe is also
hitting the ball.
Stagg, the famous Yale pitcher, expects to
become preacher of the gospel Hence his
refusal of the tempting offers to play with
professional clubs.
Ted Sullivan has given up all hopes of
securing the management of the Indianapolis
club and has gone to Eau Claire to manage
the team of that city.
Twice this season have the Washingtons
taken to Radbourns pitching and hammered
it all over the field, yet they could do nothing
with Madden and Conway.
Buffalo seems to be the best drawing city in
the International league. 1t also has about
the best team in that league. Manager Chap
man has great hopes for his team.
The indianapolis club seems to be in a bad
way for pitchers, yet when there was chance
to secure Weidman it refused him. However,
he is good enough for Detroit.
1t is the boast of Jersey City that it has the
lowest salaried team in the International
league. 1t is nothing to boast about, as the
teams work would indicate as much.
The league race for the pennant has opened
rather tamely. However, there is little doubt
that it will end with rush. New York and
Chicago will then be among the leaders.
Capt. Tom Burns is to Baltimore people
what Mike Kelly is to the .Hubites Tom is
applauded every time he comes ON the field
at Oriole park, Baltimore. He is at the head
of winning team
1t now looks as though Deacon White had
outlived his usefulness. The Detroits talk
about shelving him, in which event young
Shindle will be placed at third base, lately
sguarded by the good deacon.

York; Shakers are quiet COM
munity, secluded from the fret
and worry Of the outside world.
They are widely known, how
ever, for their strict honor and
probity in business.
The Shakers believe that ma
ture has remedy for every dis
ease. A few have been found---
the rest are as yet unknown.
Many were discovered by acct
dent. Others came to light as
the result of patient experiment
and research.
Nervous Dyspepsia is a COM
paratively neac disease, growing
out Of the conditions of modern
life. It is a joint affection of
the digestive organs and of the
nervous system. These two
were formerly treated as sepa-
rate ailments, and it was left
for the clear-sighted Shakers
to prove that the basis of this
terrible and often fatal compli-
cation lies chiefly in the disord-
cred and depraved functions of
digestion and nutrition. They
reasoned thus:-"If we can in
duce the stomach to do it's
work, and stimulate the excre-
tive organs to drive out of the
body the poisonous waste mat
tiers which remain after the life
giving elements of the food
have been absorbed, we shall
have conquered Nervous Dys-
pepsia and Nervous Exhaust
ion And they were right.
Knowing the infallible power
Of Shaker Extract {Se;gel's
Syrup in less complicated
though similar diseases,
they resolved to test it fully
in this. To leave no ground
for doubt they prescribed the
remedy in hundreds of eases
which had been pronounced in
curable-with perfect success
IN every instance where their
directions as to living and diet
were scrupulously followed.
Nervous Dyspepsia and Ex-
haustion is a peculiarly Ameri-
can disease. To a greater or
less extent half the people Of
this country suffer from it
both sexes and all ages. In no
country in the world are there
SO many insane asylums flied
to OVERLOOKING, all resulting
from this alarming disease. Its
leading symptoms are these:
Frequent or continual head
ache; a dull pain at the base
of the brain; bad breath; maui
seous quotations; the rising
of sour and pungent fluids to
the throat; a sense of oppress-
ion and faintness at the pit Of
the stomach; fiatulence; wake
fitness and loss of sleep; dis
gust with food even when
weak from the need oft; sticky
or Shiny matter on the teeth or

been the greatest on record, being 9.57.
The nearest approach to the present
record was in June 1888 which fell
short of these figures two and one-half
inches. The first week in July in
creased on the June record; but even
this is not sufficient to attain the high
est possibilities in a corn crop. Early
planted corn may fully mature without
additional rain, but late fields will re-
quire a full rainfall throughout July to
